You think "I'm dying, I thought I could handle all this but apparently I can't, I haven't had proper time off in a year, every time I think I'm going to spend time on myself someone else needs it instead or I just waste it outright, why did I think volunteering to watch all three dogs so I could make a little extra money so I could blow it all on British television was a good idea?" is a good reason for them to let me retake a class because I'm probably going to get a B?
I feel kind of pathetic for caring that I'm getting a B. I vaguely recall a time when I periodically failed classes...
My Amazon order(s) arrived today and other than being able to watch Hustle on actual DVD instead of my burned episodes... it barely made a dent on me at all.
Tomorrow I probably won't go see Harry Potter, either because I end up practically dead from lack of sleep and general... generalness, or because my brother decides he doesn't want to go and unless I want to go by myself, I have to wait for him to want to go.
Eh.

And I've downloaded... Lost, Spaced... and part of Band of Brothers. But again, haven't watched.

I'm getting old
I watched all of The Big Bang Theory and started watching How I Met Your Mother. Oh. And The Pretender. But I'm watching that with my brother so instead of going BZZZZT and watching them all at once it'll probably take me a few weeks to watch them all. We also watched Mutual Friends. Seriously, how does he manage to pick the one DVD set on the shelf that I don't want him to know I have? :P (That's a lie there are several I don't want him to know I have. >.>) He managed to only call Keeley crazy a few times though. Well, her character. But he worded it as "Keeley is crazy". :P I apparently already mentioned my retarded made-for-class webpage but I didn't mention that my teacher was giving me a hard time for not doing anything fancy with it. BUT also I'm not allowed to put any pictures on it that aren't mine or that I got permission for. Because otherwise I could get in trouble. Because people are always getting in trouble for putting pictures of TV shows on their websites. omg. I know I've been arrested several times in the past forever that I've been having websites. I mean, I'm probably in jail RIGHT NOW. Hopefully I would know for sure if I was in jail. It seems like a definitive thing. She's supposed to post an extra credit assignment... eh, I closed the page. Anyway. Something about us making our own webpage...! But how can I make my own webpage without putting pictures of shipping and boys all over it? It would be a lie otherwise. I CANNOT CREATE A WEBPAGE THAT IS A LIE! I think that's it. I live a super exciting life.

ASHES TO ASHES OMGGGGG
Okay so. I finished watching. It was wonderful. It was terrible. Okay it wasn't at all terrible it was only wonderful.
Ashes to Ashes is the sexiest show ever.
So now I must have the DVDs.
What I need to know is what else to order when I order my DVDs. I have until July to add more things apparently, so... yeah.
I suppose I should start a list of what British shows I already have on DVD. Hmmm...
Also I need to do GENE/ALEX SPAM OMG!

So, I was looking on Amazon for things for my Christmas List (it's never too early) and I found things. I need these things: http://www.nbcuniversalstore.com/detail.php?p=100632http://www.amazon.com/dp/B001N3D5X2/http://www.amazon.com/dp/B001W97GBY/http://www.amazon.com/dp/B001PQODJC/CURSE YOU NBC. Also, why are official shirts being sold on Amazon for cheaper than from NBC? Not that I'm complaining. >.> (Incidentally, I'm actually only looking for things for my Christmas List because I'm programming a web page, not because I think I need a Christmas List done in June. IN MY DEFENSE.) I could go for one of these too: http://www.nbcuniversalstore.com/detail.php?p=65505CURSE YOU NBC. They almost convinced me to want a Chuck shirt too, but the Buy More shirt is green (well... I mean, that does make sense, but...) and the other one says Chuck on it. I like it when people see my Dunder Mifflin shirt and have no idea it's a fictional thing. Okay, I think I'm done with NBC now.

I updated my userinfo. What they will and won't allow in there in terms of html is kind of goofy. But whatever. I think it's pretty. I just need to update my lj layout now. >.> Like that'll ever happen. Ha ha ha! Also here is the super exciting webpage I had to make for class: http://www.bowserbabe.com/school/html/index.htmActually, that's a lie. I "made" the pages for unit 2 (that's all that has been due so far) but everything else was given to me as is. And the ones I made, the book told me exactly what to do. FUN TIMES. I guess that is all. Oh, and I watched the first three Harry Potters yesterday and today. I had never actually heard "Hermione" said outloud before. o.O

In other news, I am depressed. Okay I lied, that's the same news. (I had something else I was going to post but it's on my laptop so it'll have to wait a bit longer.) (Also, I don't know if I mentioned since I never post... I made all As for the spring semester. Which means I've made all As for my current college career.) (Oh, and some sexy dork is going to be at Dragoncon.) (BTW, if someone watched the last episode and could tell me just how miserable it's going to make me, that'd be nice. I'd like to brace myself. :P Because right now, I have absolutely no interest in watching it whatsoever. And while I'm on the subject of shows I haven't watched, is Miami still all Eric/Calleigh/ew/gross/vomit? I think that's what I shall call that ship from now on.)

Arrrrr...
...I fell off the face of the world.
I'm going to say something and I want you all to forgive me in advance. Forgive me! Forgive me nooooow.
People are always like "School's gonna start next week and I won't have any time to get online anymore." People on my flist even.
I usually dismiss this as "Online isn't a priority and I'm going to give it up for other things, including but not limited to, school."
If that even makes sense as a separate sentence from the first one.
Even worse when people say things like "I don't have time to watch TV."
That one... yeah, I can't forgive that one. Back to the other one!
So, I've barely been online for the last week or so because I had a ton of crap to do.
- I got behind in Visual Basic and luckily the teacher let me turn it all in late without a penalty. But it all had to be done by the weekend. So it was like... 5 weeks worth of homework or something. The homework never takes me more than a day to do anyway, but having 6 programs due within a few days was a bit much even for me. - I have a final project due in Visual Basic on Wed-... tomorrow. Wow. But not until midnight or whenever. I've done all the requirements for it, but I'd like it to actually be a useful program to me, which means I've done a lot of extra work on it. And I like to show off. - I had a "final project" due in my Business class on Monday. I kind of threw it together at the last minute because I have a 100 in there already and so if I do poorly on it it doesn't matter. But I do really want to get all As again this semester so... I did have to do SOMEthing. But I worked on it for most of Monday. - My brother has a final project he has to do in order to graduate, and it's due tomorrow as well. He of course, in the tradition of my family, waited until about a week before it was due to start on it. And he seems to do better working on it if someone's hanging out with him so he can talk out problems or just generally to discourage him from spending his programming time watching anime instead. So I've spent a lot of time either hanging out with him while he's here, or hanging out at his apartment. Some of that time was spent on my own programming though, so...
So. I've barely been online in about a week.
So I guess I can see how someone else might have to be online less overall because of school. I guess.
I didn't give up TV though. No way. Ashes to Ashes! Without a Trace! 'bout to go watch Fringe!
In fact, I'm about to go watch Fringe.

IT'S FINALLY FEBRUARY
I thought Ashes to Ashes aired tomorrow but no I am wrong it airs today! Today! I love today!
So that means the final meme entry will be:
1. Post about something that made you happy today. 2. Repeat for eight days.
Day 8 - ASHES TO ASHES OMG OMG GENE AND ALEX MAYBE THEY'LL MAKE OUT I CAN HOPE ANYWAY DON'T RAIN ON MY PARADE.
Also I'll probably watch Primeval (although that will be perhaps more depressing than happyfying) and one assumes that Castle will be on tonight.
BUT MOSTLY IT'S GENE AND ALEX AND OMG OMG OMG.
Edit: I was right, Primeval was depressing. >.> But Andrew-Lee Potts makes me fuzzy inside. So there's that.
4/19/09 07:50 pm
I suck at this
1. Post about something that made you happy today. 2. Repeat for eight days.
Day 4 (thursday) - I had my favorite class. Although it's going to be over soon and that makes me sad. But it made me happy first. Also I went to the gym. That was good for me.
Day 5 (friday) - Brother came over and we played computer games.
Day 6 (saturday) - Watched 2 episodes of Bones. Apparently I like TV.
Day 7 (sunday, today) - BOBBY AND ALEX ARE ON TONIGHT OMG OMG OMG OMG.
OMG OMG OMG OMG.
4/16/09 02:54 am
Fell off the wagon after one day
1. Post about something that made you happy today. 2. Repeat for eight days.
Okay so... yesterday (Tuesday) would be day 2, and today (Wednesday) would be day 3.
Day 2 - I feel bad using TV again, but I was pretty impressed with how well Jack handled all the crap that's been happening on Without a Trace. Sam doesn't deserve him! But... only because nobody deserves him. Because he's just that wonderful.
And then Fringe was on too. And Olivia seemed jealous. And jealousy is great.
Day 3 - What made me happy today is easy. My second favorite fic writer posted a fic at the best time because I was feeling down and alone and then my e-mail was like IT'S OKAY THERE'S FIC FOR YOU! and I was happy.
My mom asked me a question today about fanfic, but she worded it as "When you were in your fanfic phase" or something like that. >.> Little does she know.
I guess she'll know if she sees this though.
4/13/09 09:32 pm
1. Post about something that made you happy today. 2. Repeat for eight days. 3. Tag eight people to do the same.
Day 1 - um... today was kind of a blah day... stayed home sick and things. But in 25 minutes Castle will be on and Nathan Fillion can make anyone's day happy, yeah?
I'm sure something else made me happy earlier but right now I have no idea what it is. Midday naps ftl.

Google's Amazing Image Search
( Sometimes I cut pictures because I'm nice )On page 3 or 4 I did get a couple of Bradley Cooper pictures to show up... at least those were appropriate. Not what I was looking for though. Thanks, Google. Oh. The last three (that I labeled) were apparently all from the same page, I guess that makes it make a little more sense. But I didn't realize that until I clicked on the SG-1 picture. EDIT: The same Mary McDonnell picture showed up when I searched for: "Jack Donaghy" "Liz Lemon" >.>
